This is THE coolest way to hide and trick folders in Windows. This is best utilized at work or at school where you can carry the key on a USB and just keep the locked folders on the computers you visit often.

The Method

This will be a lock and key method. Where locked the folder will become a Control Panel shortcut. This makes it impossible get in the folder without the key which will revert it back to normal. Ok now to the CODE.(Save as .bat in Notepad)

Lock.bat:

Code:

ren Fonts Fonts.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}

The folder you lock will need to be named Fonts.

Key.bat:

Code:

ren Fonts.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} Fonts

For best unlocking temporarily place the .bat file in the same place as the locked folder and click.

Save this file as Lock.bat
Now create a folder and name that folder as "Locker" remember, other names will now work until u change the code! Now put ur personal documents into the locker folder and then run the Lock.bat file. Give a password then choose y for locking. don't forget the password. The file will disappear in seconds.
If u want to unlock, simply run again the lock.bat and give the password.Use At Your Own Risk!
Lock.bat and Locker folder must be at same path!

This method has one flaw....Tools>Folder Options>View>Show Hidden Folders
It is now viewable and just click on the folder. No password necessary.
